Monsters from Beyond Reality (20 page)

The original transcendent at the first
castle had died before he had taken it to the castle, where it had
slowly altered into something that they could not understand, and
they had tried to use its magic.

They had found some ways of communicating
with it when it had created the second William Randall and they had
used it to build the second castle with its powers.

Through the second William Randall they had
learned that it had traced the original transcendent and artifact
there into this universe, and it had occasionally attempted to
mimic it and make contact with it and analyze it. It had been
unable to repair itself and had been trapped and could not fully
achieve its objective and fully understand.

At the second castle they had tried to use
it for magical purposes, and it had foreseen some future
occurrences, but had unsuccessfully tried to accumulate its powers
to use themselves.

They had used it to create castle defenses
when they had been threatened with annihilation by an army, which
they had not been able to do properly, and had improvised and as a
result of it had turned the castle into what it was, which had
killed all of the people there, except William Randall who had been
at the other castle when it had happened, and he had found out
about it later when he had gone there, and it had entered a dormant
state.

The second William Randall had been killed
there and they had put him in the tomb at the second castle.

They had not been able to deactivate it and
had split it into two parts to weaken its powers and they had put
them into the two ventilation shafts.

Bryson
finished the diary
realizing that it had left the
deadliest menace in the world at the castle and he tried to work
out
how they could
possibly approach it without being killed, to return it to where it
had originated!

Chapter 27

The Voyage Beyond the
Cosmos

For a moment
Bryson sensed a weird sensation as though something had happened
and something else was going to happen!

The scientists
were calibrating their equipment in the room at the second tunnel
and Bryson watched them gasp, and even Mitchell stood dazed, as
they realized what was going to happen. It was absurdly dangerous
beyond anything that Bryson could realize and he had not heard of
anything like it being done before.

William had
been found to be able to communicate properly with the entity in
the second tunnel at a close distance, and they had used it locate
the two parts of the entity in the ventilation shafts, which had
been discovered to be solid matter.

They had used
William to stop it from attacking or throwing them into gateways
going beyond the universe and they found that they were small black
slabs like shiny black stone, measuring three feet by three feet
with a thickness of half a foot, which were fitted above the
entrances into the tunnels, disguised as the castle stones
there.

It had
surprised Bryson that William Randall had persuaded the entity to
make itself into solid matter! Bryson had been able to touch them
without being killed or thrown out of space and time into some
other world, and the scientists found a way of joining them
together by using the entity and William and it had formed into a
rectangle black alien artifact identical to the rectangle
transparent black shape that he had visualized in the second
tunnel, when it had tried to make contact with him.

They had found
ways to increase the communications between William and the entity
by using specially designed equipment, connected to the alien
artifact.

William was in
a seat where he had objects covering his head connected to
equipment that monitored him and his thoughts and transmitted his
thoughts to the alien artifact.

Bryson realized that they had been correct
in informing the entity that the other transcendent and its alien
artifact at the other castle no longer existed, which it had been
stuck there trying to make contact with, and it had told them that
it had detected it was. It had been designed to meet it and destroy
it if it was a danger to it or its creators – and it had been
unable to do it as it had been damaged by having its energy source
damaged, which had happened so fast that it had not realized what
had happened.

They had all
watched it activating their equipment – which they had taught
William how to use and how it worked.

All the
scientists had stood back as it burst into life – using massive
amounts of energy fed to it through attached cables – with the
sheer energy making the castle about them vibrate and lurch!

Even
though it was a great deal of energy to them it was little to the
entity – but enough to allow it to do what they had told it to do
–
and to open a gateway through time to itself before
it had entered this universe, just before it had made its
appearance on this world where it had failed to get enough
energy.

All the scientists there realized
immediately that it was working and that it had achieved its
mission – and that it could use the energy supply from itself in
past!

Bryson
realized that they had actually found out from their questioning of
it that it was partly programmed, but nothing like their computers,
or from this universe, and that it mainly functioned carrying out
what it had been created for and that it had been a form of time
probe – which they had not been properly able to deduce – as vast
amounts of information that it had could not be translated or
understood, and had no equivalent.

For a moment Bryson wondered if it could
change history and do something like stop itself from entering the
universe in 1620, when the fishermen at the fishing village had
witnessed its materialization and bright light exploding out of the
early morning mist over the sea, like a crazy shooting star.

Suddenly William and the alien
artifact vanished and
Bryson realized the hideous reality of the situation and
that they had let it loose on the universe and on the whole of
time!

In the
first place it had been virtual mad when it had been split in half!
It surely had been altered by William Randall and his men’s
experiments – and them altering it to believe in tales of
witchcraft, magic, demons, and hell – and the other
transcendent
haunting the other castle that it had
mimicked – and there was no proper proof that it was undamaged by
its entrance into the universe, and it crashing into the
world!

Though they all soon sensed that it had not
and felt its power and intelligence, and how sane it was, and that
it was far more than anything that he had ever thought existed!

Light from it exploded everywhere all
over the world showing them its new existence – and entities in the
form of large bright globes appeared around them and slowly
vanished
.

When it finished Bryson felt vaguely
confused but knew that it had left the universe and that they had
done everything that they could for it, and the world.

He then wondered if William had told him the
truth earlier that day when he had told him that William Randall
had got his treasure from the entity, which had collected it from
many sources, and that he had only removed part of the treasure to
the other castle – which had been what Bryson had found at the
other castle – and that the remains of the treasure had been buried
away in a secret chamber under floor of the second tunnel.

When Bryson investigated it he was staggered
to find Pendleton there already, digging up the ground under the
second tunnel and that he had just uncovered the secret chamber,
and both of them climbed into it and found an entire room full of
treasure.

Epilogue

The Transcendent
Voyager

For billions of years the transcendent
voyager had existed never wholly knowing what had created it or
where it had originated, carrying out its mission of searching
through time and space in its universe for abnormalities, unknown
civilizations and species, and transcendent entities with colossal
powers and capabilities and to destroy them if they were dangerous
to reality and what its programming considered dangerous.

It had been designed and given technology
beyond anything else that it had encountered and had the abilities
to search its universe in a degree and with abilities that would
not have been believed to exist by the most advanced transcendences
and civilizations, and would have been thought of as magical
powers, and it had the ability to search its universe throughout
time.

Its form had been an invisible complex mass
of energy, stored in many dimensions, that had been built to last
forever, and it directly entered stars to energize itself and store
its vast powers for extensive amounts of time.

Its stores of information had been vast and
it had the ability to collect as much information on what it had
been programmed for eternally and improve its defenses and other
abilities, and it had become the ultimate weapon of destruction
against the destruction of its universe.

It had stored the technology and abilities
of zillions of species and had the ability to recognize and handle
what it had been searching for within a range of its universe.

At one point it had unintentionally left the
universe and had entered an outer universe that it had not known
the existence of, where colossal amounts of universes had existed,
and on its entrance there its programming had accepted it as the
real universe and that it had to accept it as the universe that it
had to carry out its mission in.

At first it had been unable to enter the
universes and properly detect anything in them and it used all its
information and studied how it had entered the outer universe and
found a way to enter them and locate particular things in them, but
infinite amounts of things of unknown origins existed in them.

In supernatural universes it had learned to
open and use gateways that shifted it accurately to destinations.
It discovered far more than it had ever realized could exist and it
gave itself colossal magical abilities and energies and it had
analyzed everything in a greater degree.

On its first entrances to the universes it
had been left staggered when it had encountered something of
unknown origins that had drained its energy from it!

Something had virtually absorbed all its
power instantly on its entrance of the Earth’s atmosphere, only
leaving it with some of its energy in other dimensions, which it
had not considered possible as it had not been possible in its own
universe, and it could not get proper amounts of power in other
dimensions and had to fight to survive and had continuously tried
to alter and adapt to something that it could survive as, and it
had to create dormant states and ways of collecting energy from
small sources and storing it until it had enough to reactivate
itself, and work on finding a source powerful enough for it to use
to leave there.

Even though it had not done much in its
damaged condition, with its vast abilities virtually unusable, it
had been able to explore things through supernatural gateways into
universes, going out into the strangest places, and it had even
considered if there had been others such as it in the endless
universes and if they had created it, and if it could contact them
to help it, and it had gained abilities to explore inconceivable
dimensions and powers in the universes, far beyond its original
knowledge and powers.

The humans had helped it and it had used its
powers to help them and it had created things for them, including
defenses and entities to protect them, and it had created things to
hide itself away, even though it had almost damaged itself by
splitting itself into two halves.

The humans had become far more advanced and
it had been surprised that they had actually found a way for it to
restore itself!

On entering the outer universes it had
repaired itself and immediately made sure nothing could drain it of
energy again and gave itself abilities to create energy in new ways
anywhere, and it altered most of its programming to adapt.

It created colossal supernatural powers,
going beyond anything known, and used its magical powers to
transform it into something beyond anything that it had ever
encountered and it gained powers to build universes, and others,
and found far more than it had ever realized could exist and
another universe beyond there.

Part II

Prologue

The Ancient
Discovery

Even now, after what transpired, I do not
comprehend what it was, but what I do distinguish is it never came
from this universe.

Visualization I glimpsed off it showed it
resembled a dazzling star in deep space as its front materialized
into the solar system.

A powerful star of unidentified
magnitude and origins emitting strange shades of dazzling light
through Earth
’
s atmosphere that would have been seen by
early human inhabitants.

Its formation altering to a radiating
reddish triangular of light magically rotating out of space itself,
and a hole through the fabric of space and time, from somewhere
strange and unknown, spinning increasingly faster, while
bright
colored
lines of energy spun rapidly around its radius, and parts of
it altered to different forms of energy, and while its power and
spin increased it turned to a circle of lines and light.
